Nike Thanks US For Writing The Future

   

After utter failure at predicting the short-term future this year – although Rooney’s fail-beard was spot on (do you think he’s contractually obligated to sport one for ManU come opening day now?) – Nike has done the only smart thing possible: gone with a long enough time frame such that there is no accountability. Who’s going to remember in 5-10 years if this year’s US team didn’t exactly spark America’s rise into relevance when contention is discussed? Exactly – no one.

Nike: Write The Future Long-Term Future So No One Will Remember If We’re Wrong.

(You heard it here first when they run out that marketing scheme in 2014.)

    That would be an insult to the female edition, implying it was the men who paved a way for the future of both NT's when the women have actually won something rather than celebrated a loss in the first kayo round. By not showing girls, it's actually being gender equal. Or perhaps even displaying how much better the women's team is than the men's.

    I didn't look at it this way. Thank you for your insight. :)
